Polish Movies at SIFF

Seattle Polish Film Festival is cooperating with SIFF promoting two Polish/Polish connected films.

The other one is “Sanatorium Under the Sign of the Hourglass”, in which the Brothers Quay spin another fantastical stop motion yarn with the surreal story inspired by the work of Polish writer Bruno Schulz, about a young man on a ghostly train ride toward a sanitorium that may exist out of time and space.
